Not top secret, I'd just rather leave it until the project was well advanced, no point in naming it for the project to become stillborn, It's definitely WWII though.

I'm also in the middle of restoring a 1938 Zundapp DB 250 motorcycle, 1 of only 2 known, the other is in South America.

There were only 2500 DB 250's made before civilian production was abandoned to the 500, 600 & 800's for military production.

Doug got back to me on what Ferret bit he was after, so if anyone knows of any of these bits......

I am after the plates that bolt to the top of what you see in that picture.

The plates (and the solid rubber edging) drop into the open area
and secure with bolts through the holes in the flange you can see
around the inside edge of the top. The plates also have welded
on sections where the machine gun mounts.

I am also looking for the MK1 plates, and rubber. I have a MK2/3 and would like to make it a little more passenger friendly.
